blog posts again this week – okay, so it is now Wed so maybe just a couple more. I have fallen behind over the last couple of weeks. With a bunch of commercial projects, client art projects/orders, the beginning of full-day kindergarten for my son, my daughter turning 3 (wow, who knew that these last two would be so emotional for this mom), tons of family in town, coordinating the next social series (details coming!), some summer fun and of course, some awesome family sessions with returning and new clients. I am going to do my very best this week to get back on top of everything and to share what has been going on here. I keep telling clients that are booking to check my blog for my latest work and I have been so behind with actually getting something up here! Not sure that this will change for the next 3-4 months!

The first family to grace my blog this week is a client that I have gotten to see each year for the last few years. I am extremely appreciative of all of the amazing families that come and see me each year. I love watching your families grow and change each year! This week again, I have been reminded as to how quickly time flies and your children grow up. It is really neat to get the opportunity to capture this for others. Thank you! R Family, it was so great to see you again. You girls are gorgeous and a blast to shoot!

This client called me last week to see if I could get her in for a session prior to her daughter’s first birthday this past weekend. There was a concern that her dress may end up covered in cake and we would not be able to do the session after the party. Well, of course, I made it work. So glad that we were able to make it work. It definitely would have been difficult to clean all of the cake out of the tulle and the flower for that matter. This gorgeous dress is from Pink or Blue Baby Couture! Adorable!

On another note, there has been an absolute booking frenzy for the fall this past week. If you are considering fall/Christmas pictures (particularly outdoor and weekend sessions), there are very few session times remaining. I can however be flexible on weekdays. In addition, wall art and framing was extremely popular for Christmas gifts last year. If this is something that you are considering, sessions must happen prior to November 15th in order to ensure delivery for Christmas.
